Vitamin D is important


Did you know that sunlight is the best source of vitamin D for your parrots?

Vitamin D comes in pelleted parrot food but it also comes from the sun. If your house has lots of windows try putting a bird stand or your birds cage by it so they get sun light shining on them. If you don't have a lot of windows you can you a light called Avian Sun, this light makes it so your can bring the "sun" inside. Another way is if you live in a area where it is between 70 degrees F and 85 degrees F then you can bring your bird outside with you but always make sure that you have your bird in a cage, on a harness or flight trained for the safety of the bird. It is NOT a good idea to clip your birds wings simply so you can take it outside!! Clipped birds can still fly away if they get spooked or catch the wind in the right way!
